Eugene | Katanaut

I’ve been waiting years to type this sentence. Katanaut is coming September 10th, 2025. #indiegame #gamedev

spent years making Katanaut alone and now its just sitting on the Steam front page😭

What what whaaaaa!? bsky.app/profile/debu...

You want to WHAT!? Real talk: If Katanaut made you smile, I'd be grateful if you drop a review on Steam. They help way more than you think!

Katanaut’s first major update is live. Compete worldwide, dive into new biomes, meet new bosses, unlock new toys. Bring your Ninja Gaiden footwork, your Dead Cells grit, and your Katana Zero reflexes⚔️

Katanauts first major update deployed. Calling all Dead Cells and Katana Zero fans! Compete worldwide via leaderboards, step into stranger biomes, meet ruder bosses, survive fresh mobs, unlock more toys. I am in love with the chaos🙃

Katanaut v1.1 dropped last week! Global leaderboards, new enemies, biomes, and unlockables :)

Imagine thinking I shipped an eldritch roguelite without a banana projector.

Global leaderboards just hit Katanaut, and it’s been genuinely fun watching the races across different lanes. If you top a category, you earn in-game trophy that the whole station can see. So many Nauts, so many alternative dimensions, but only one cohesive goal🥳

Kult-Publisher Acclaim ist zurück und #Katanaut von @voidmawgames.bsky.social ist sicher einer der interessantesten Titel im neuen Line-up. Ich habe mich mal als Cyber-Ninja Naut durch die Horden kosmischen Horrors geschlitzt und meine Eindrücke hier zusammengetragen: polygonien.de/2025/09/kata...

Katanaut is a fast-paced, Metroidvania action roguelite blending fluid combat and cosmic horror. Slash, dodge, and wield powerful abilities as you battle through a station sprawling with once-human horrors. Demo here! store.steampowered.com/app/3032830/... #indiedev @voidmawgames.bsky.social

We have two kinds of cats in Katanaut: pettable and regrettable. @marceldee.bsky.social can confirm😅 I think one of the best parts of this journey is honestly just watching someone else play your game. It's cutting into bug-fixing time, but it's just so much fun to watch!
